3pdt toggle switch

[Guybrush]

Hi all

I'm looking to build a new test rig and would like to use a 3pdt toggle switch (rather than a footwitch). Unfortunately I can only find on- off on-on and on-off-on toggle switches. Does anyone know where I might find the necessary on-off version?

Thanks as always.

Pretty sure this is what you are looking for. Underlined.

Oops, that's a typo  .

Will go back and edit. Thanks

On-on is the one you want.  Here, "on" just means each pole is connected to one of the throw terminals in each of the two switch positions, same as in the stomp switch.

Yep, just your standard 3pdt toggle switch is what you want. It's wired the same way, that way, you have bypass and effected signal.

Given that it's a toggle, you can just use a DPDT. The extra pole in 3PDT stomps is needed to show whether the switch is on or off, as you cannot tell from just looking at a stomp alone. With a toggle, you can just look at it.
